I got this report from an OLC user, name of "tomcat". If I neglected to
ask him something important, he may be able to answer further questions.
Here's the relevant log extracts:

an all of my zephyr turned off. i can't send or recieve. i don't know whetherthat is the only problem or not though.
Machine info: CVAXSTAR, SM, 0x658000 user, 0x7e3000 (8 M) total
i can move my mouse around.
A ps aux showed that mwm was still running and so was zhm. zwgc was not.
There was not an excessive number of processes running on the workstation.
At the time the problem occurred:
i tried to paste from a zephyr that i recieved, and there was a beep and the mes
ssage apprea
appeared in the console window. i have neither a .zwgc or a .zwgc.desc file.
yes, i am not longer getting zephyrs.
it was a message in french and I was trying to paste french accents.
He restarted his zwgc and everything is fine now.
For reference, his log is in ozephyr. If you want the full log to help with
this bug, I'll get it for you if you don't have access.
